Chicago Bulls guard Alex Caruso (neck) and forward Patrick Williams (ankle) are both available for Wednesday's game versus the Houston Rockets. The Bulls' role players should both be good for their usual workloads, considering this matchup is neither the first nor second leg of a back-to-back, but they are trending down with Zach LaVine (foot) and Nikola Vucevic back in the fold. This contest also features the lowest implied point total (216.5) on Wednesday's 10-game slate by a wide margin, so this is probably not the right environment to dig into the bargain bin on either side for DFS purposes. Without a true point guard running the show amid Lonzo Ball's (knee) absence in the Windy City, Chicago's slow-paced offense sees them sit last in the Association in possessions per game (98.2).
Chicago Bulls forward Patrick Williams (ankle) couldn't practice on Sunday and is a question mark for Monday's meeting with the Hornets. Williams missed his first game of the season against Charlotte on Friday due to a right ankle strain. His absence gave a boost to Dalen Terry's fantasy stock as the 21-year-old logged his first career start. The first-round pick from 2022 registered eight points, four rebounds, and two steals in 21 minutes. It's a great matchup fantasy-wise, as Charlotte is ranked 28th in defensive efficiency and also offers a pace-up spot for the Bulls.
Chicago Bulls forward Patrick Williams (ankle) won't play on Friday versus the Hornets. The 22-year-old was listed as questionable. However, his absence won't be as significant of a blow for Chicago, considering the team will get Nikola Vucevic (hip) and Zach LaVine (foot) back on Friday night. But with Alex Caruso (neck), Torrey Craig (foot) out, and Vucevic on minutes restriction, the Bulls may need to give DeMar DeRozan and Coby White more work. At the same time, Ayo Dosunmu and Dalen Terry could be featured more than usual.
